Best tide state to fish Montebello Islands (Conservation Park / Marine Park)

Tides run 3 to 4 metres on the springs and shape the lagoon and reef-edge fishing. Trade winds from the south to south-east blow hard most afternoons in the dry season — the morning window before 10am is the working time. Cyclone season runs November to April with serious storm potential and is the main reason most charters concentrate in the May–October dry. Water visibility is excellent in the dry and drops in the build-up. The crossing from Dampier kicks up fast in any south-westerly so weather windows are non-negotiable.
